I've upload my dump file again and include a readme.txt file in the zip file to ftp/incoming location under file name SpeedyPCdumpsfile2013-05-03.7z (41mb) regarding the BSOD problem with W8 64bit please let me know by PM that you've got the dump file thank you and sorry for not including a readme.txt file explaining the issue.

Just an update on the patch to resolve BSOD I was talking about testing:
I have installed 8.0.1488 over the top of 8.0.1483 on my win7 starter edition 32bit netbook. Before rebooting I followed the instructions and applied the patch and the reboot completed successfully.

Looks like that patch is fine for 8.0.1488 on win7 32bit.

OK, Install (after removal 1483 in Safemode)  via the downloaded Set-up File went fine (OnWin8).
Still, I can only imagine what kind of reaction this failed process would cause from someone without Computer/software experience.

Install seemed to go fine but after "Reboot" got the SAD FACE saying something to the effect " your PC has encountered a problem rebooting. We are collecting error information and will reboot for you".
This goes through 2 cycles because Win8 doesn't boot successfully. THEN the system goes into recovery mode and I have to enter 'Safe Mode' and uninstall this latest version.
I have done all the processes 'we as Evangelists' give to people with just this issue and to no success.
This version (8.0.1488) is simply no good for my Windows 8 Pro 64Bit.
Don't know what else to do or say!!
Going back to 8.0.1483 or what???

Hi all,

I hope you are all well, I have done a clean install of Avast! FFREE 8.0.1488 and the install went smoothly.

I am having a problem installing security plugin for Google Chrome up to date 26.0.1410.64m, when I click in install but nothing happens.
Has anyone else had the same problem as me with this issue?

Hope to hear from anyone who can help and advice, thank you in advance.

happy avast user

This version has been working OK in spite of the work invovled in getting rid of GoogleUpdate.
I noticed with the last version that apps. seemed to be starting faster (less difference with/without Avast running than with previous versions) and this trend has continued - very good, thank you.
